<TITLE>08. Par 76-87</TITLE>L-76 The first time, when I met Dr. Bosworth, here, was in Miami. We were having meeting. Dr. Bosworth's internationally known, forty years experience in teaching Divine healing. He thought that someday God would send the--the gift to the church. And then when he heard I was down there, he just thought, "Well, there it is again, just somebody preaching Diving healing." He came to the meeting one night. And coming through the meeting... We were having, what they call, the fast line; thousands were standing.
That afternoon, two little boys on WBAY, broadcasting station, been interviewed, been born blind. Both of them had their sight, and they had them down there at the broadcasting station, interviewing them.
So Brother Bosworth came out to the meeting. And it happened to be, while the fast line started, there was several thousand we had to pass by that night, nothing but just laid hands on them coming by, four abreast.

L-79 They pushed a little girl through. I shall never forget the child. She was a cute little thing. She was a little, blond-headed girl, one tooth out in front, and had a little, new little manicure in her hair, or what you call them things that women put in their hair. They pushed her... She was in braces, down over her--her little waist here. And they'd push her through the line, and I'd lay hands on her. She'd get off the platform, and they'd push her back in the line. Why, the poor little thing... And she kept coming through. And then someone would bring her through, and they lay hands on her. And while she passed through again, she looked up, kind of one of those little bitty grins, you know, and that tooth out. And Something just said, "Stop the child."
I said, "Honey..." I seen she didn't have faith to be healed at that time.

L-81 But, see, that's what the gift is for. Here on the platform, you notice how He sometimes, you have to work. The people say, "Oh, I believe, Brother Branham." But here they are, down here; and here's where they ought to be, up here. Well, then those things of telling their diseases and the secrets of their heart, the faith rises up till I get the person to believe me.
That's what He said, "If you get the people to believe you, then be sincere when you pray, no demon can hold over there, then." He has to know the Master. Then... And I know He told me that.
And when I can get that patient up to a place till their faith comes to this, that's what gives me a perfect faith. I've never seen it fail. And it never will fail. It can't fail.

L-84 And then when the girl, they pushed her through, I said, "Honey, you stand right behind me." And she stood back there, just holding her; she held on to my coat tail. I said, "You pray, honey." And she'd have her little head down, praying.
And Brother Bosworth was setting, taking all this in, still just a little bit skeptic. And he was watching, 'cause he was out there, just watching the last of the meeting going through. And she was... It was the last night, I believe it was.
And she was holding my coat, and I just kept on praying. I'd forgot about the child. I turned around again; I said, "Honey, keep praying," like that.

L-87 And after a while, I begin to feel that faith begin to set in, like a heart beat, pump, pump, pump. And when it begin to... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... go like that, I turned around to her. I said, "Now, sweetheart," and I laid my hands upon her and asked the Lord Jesus.
I said to the mother, I said, "Now, take the braces off of her."
She said, "But, Brother Branham, I tell you, she's..."
I said, "Uh-huh, don't you doubt that, lady. You do what you're told to do." She walked over there and took the braces off the child.
Here she come back down and holding that great big braces, through those people like that, perfectly normal, just as normal as she could be, those little legs. Is that right, Doctor Bosworth? And went on with the meeting. Just a few moments, I kept...
